| Reversbeschreibung | Central depiction of the celebrated Canadian fishing schooner Bluenose under full sail, rendered in fine relief against a plain field. The vessel, built in Nova Scotia and renowned as an undefeated racing schooner, has appeared on the Canadian dime since 1937, designed by Emanuel Hahn. The country name CANADA arcs along the upper legend, while the denomination 10 CENTS is inscribed along the lower periphery, with the date 1968 positioned to the left of the vessel and the mint mark H appearing to the right. |

In 1968, the Royal Canadian Mint faced a production crisis: soaring silver prices had made the previous 80% silver dime worth more as metal than as currency, and hoarding had drained circulation stocks faster than Ottawa could respond. The solution was an abrupt switch to nickel, but domestic minting capacity couldn't keep pace with demand. A portion of the 1968 nickel dimes were consequently struck under contract at the Philadelphia Mint — the last time a U.S. facility produced circulating Canadian coinage.
Philadelphia pieces are distinguished from their Ottawa counterparts by a subtly different planchet finish. No mint mark was applied.
